A cracked or broken tooth can happen for a variety of reasons- brittle teeth, teeth grinding, injury. The crack may be invisible to the naked eye and even X-ray, but they can be incredibly painful and create bigger problems if left untreated. If you experience pain when chewing see your dentist. They can diagnose the cause and develop a plan for treatment.

Maintaining
Healthy Teeth
A regular visit to the dentist to have your teeth cleaned by a
professional hygienist is an important preventive measure. Plaque
and tartar inevitably form on teeth over time. If plaque is not
removed with daily brushing it hardens into tartar, which a
toothbrush or floss cannot remove. Tartar that accumulates below the
gumline is detrimental to your health – more than just your teeth.
Research has proven the link between gum disease and
life-threatening conditions like stroke, diabetes, and heart
disease.
Our hygienist takes the time to be thorough and remove any and all
buildup on a tooth’s surface. We highly recommend a regular cleaning
for overall good health and vitality.
